    L322 2004 diesel Range Rover, 131,000 miles, pitfalls?

    I also read about some of the V 8 problems. Also the fact there are two turbochargers to worry about, where the 2963cc strait 6 only has the one. Yes, the newer Jag V8 diesel is probably the engine of choice, working on the assumption that "newer is better" but I am not sure this would benefit...

    L322 2004 diesel Range Rover, 131,000 miles, pitfalls?

    Thanks Mark, Is there a decent benefit in getting the V8 3,6 as opposed to the 2963cc strait 5 BMW mill? It's for her , and no towing duties, she is a bit of a plodder style driver. Gra

    L322 2004 diesel Range Rover, 131,000 miles, pitfalls?

    Many thanks so far to the above posters for getting some thing so quickly for me to read. As the g'box has been mentioned, I guess more emphasis should be placed on this than probably all the others. No one seems to have mentioned the BMW strait 6 engine, can I take it that these are...

    L322 2004 diesel Range Rover, 131,000 miles, pitfalls?

    Hi all, I have found a reasonably clean and tidy RR diesel, with the 2925cc lump. Just gone over the 131k miles. It is the Vouge, TD6 5 speed auto. In order of priority, or urgency, what would my knowledgeable friends here give me as the top 5 things to ask, or check for. Last Land Rover was...

    Other Brand New RR Sport, build date ?

    OK, Thanks wammers, I have heard that the build month could well be on the adhesive stick label on inside the drivers door jam. Not sure of how reliable that info is, so until my wife asks the logistics guys to photo the stick on label. I know the vin details on the adhesive stick on...

    300TDi Auto Conversion

    Very nice. I agree entirely with your comments regarding the ease of driving an auto rather than stirring all the cogs up, Why Land Rover didn't do a standard, out the factory auto Defender, 25 years ago, is beyond me. Myself, I have had several Land Cruisers, every one an automatic. Sure...

    Conversion manual to automatic

    Thank you to all who replied so positive and quickly. We don't have a Defender as yet, but my wife does like the shape of them. She likes the squareness. Would the members on here think it would be better either a petrol or diesel conversion? She drives 38 miles per day, ,30 of them on freely...

    Conversion manual to automatic

    Hi all, Is this a conversion that is available? Any one done it before? What engine and box would be best suited to a Defender 90. Thanks

    Defender Automatic

    Hi all, Is there a Defender automatic produced, the 90 series ? Or would it be an engine and gearbox transplant from some other Land Rover vehicle? Wife had long liked the 90, but will not entertain a manual box, Gra.

    Mongolia 2015

    I agree that China, for all the possible complications, should be the final stop. Sure Mongolia is nice, but get into rural China for that real experience. I am fortunate, I lived and worked in China, and also passed the Chinese driving licence. Best thing ever, not easy, but do'able. My...
